Marvel signals X-Men reboot May 2028; Thor remains central as the MCU legatee of thunder, myth, and mega-blockbuster storytelling.
Marvel Studios is moving forward with a standalone X‑Men film under Jake Schreier, following the integration of X‑Men characters into the MCU. Kit Connor is tipped for Cyclops and Samara Weaving for Emma Frost as casting discussions accelerate ahead of a D23 reveal. The project aims for a younger, ensemble-led approach, avoiding heavy time-travel tropes.
